Hayden went over to talk to a man holding a baby and Tatyana was left with the on fire lady. She flinched and tensed as the woman grabbed her elbow and led her to a place to sit. She sat without a word and kept her hands around her body. Despite her trying, her hands still shook. One hand moved down to her coat pocket where her pills were. It was hard to focus on anything but that.
Still Tatyana heard her questions. Fire lady wasn't judging her for her out of control emotions right now at least. She seemed to want to get right to work. Tatyana tried to make herself appear smaller. She wasn't used to being afraid, but she was even as she knew she probably shouldn't be. Was a couple of weeks ago. Three guys tried to take my food. I fought back. Two grabbed me. I threw the other across the alley then fought the other two away." Her voice was quiet and unsure. "Got really sick after that, but not since then. I try to practice, but can only touch it when I'm high or drunk."
Her hand squeezed the box in her pocket. She needed her meds so bad. She sniffled, holding back tears and wiped at her nose. "It feels...warm." she finally said. "Don't know how else to describe it." The whole time, she kept her head down, her eyes gazing at a spot on the carpet.
